The US, Iran, and a group of regional mediators are discussing the terms of a possible 45-day ceasefire.
Modern.az reports that, according to the “Axios” portal, this ceasefire could lead to the complete cessation of the conflict.
According to the information, negotiations are being conducted with the mediation of Pakistan, Egypt, and Turkey. At the same time, communication is also maintained via messaging between US President's special envoy Steve Witkoff and Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi.
According to sources, the likelihood of reaching a partial agreement within the next 48 hours is low.
An American official stated that the Donald Trump administration has sent several proposals to Tehran in recent days, but Iranian officials have not yet accepted them.
According to sources, mediators are discussing the terms of a two-stage agreement with the parties. In the first stage, a 45-day ceasefire is possible.
According to one of the sources, if more time is needed for negotiations, the ceasefire regime can be extended.
According to “Axios”, the second stage could be the achievement of a final agreement on the complete cessation of the conflict.
According to sources, mediators believe that the full opening of the Strait of Hormuz and the resolution of the highly enriched uranium problem will only be possible as a result of a final agreement.
The portal notes that mediators are working on steps that the Donald Trump administration could take to guarantee Iran that the ceasefire will not be temporary and that the war will not resume. Iranian officials, however, have explicitly told mediators that they do not want to be in a scenario similar to the situation in Gaza or Lebanon.
